Roosevelt grew up as a spoiled little
rich boy. As president, he became a
power-hungry egomaniac who tried to
pack the Supreme Court to get his way.

His crazy economic schemes did little
to improve the economy. In fact, he prolonged the
suffering for an entire decade with unemployment
rates of 15-20% for most of the 1930s.

His inattention to growing foreign threats
in the 1930s and his incompetence as
commander-in-chief in allowing our Pacific
Fleet to be destroyed in a single attack
got us involved in WW2. Yes, we did eventually
win WW2, but it was the most costly and bloodiest
war in history.

And, oh yes, I almost forgot, you like to complain
about Ashcroft, right? Well, Roosevelt thought nothing
of imprisoning innocent Japanese-Americans with
absolutely no due process.
